[QUOTE]Originally posted by Peregrinus: [QB] *sigh* I need to make a FAQ page so I can just post a link instead of restating this multiple times. By the time we had primary hull references to main engineering, Gene, Bob, and to a lesser degree Matt, had pretty much divorced themselves from the series, and no one who was left knew what was supposed to be where, beyond "The Making of Star Trek" which was written during TOS' second season. Besides, Matt didn't review scripts as his successors on TNG did. Odds are he never knew about those references. The red-illuminated structures visible out the aft wall of the engineering set were the main matter/antimatter reactors, built forced-perspective to fit within the soundstage walls. If you look at the ceiling, the lateral braces start low on the starboard wall and curve up to the port wall. The set as built represents the starboard half of main engineering -- or at least has main engineering occupying the starboard half of the secondary hull at that point. It is not two identical (or nearly so) rooms in different parts of the ship. It is one room that got redressed as they could afford it between seasons (as they did with the bridge of the [i]Enterprise[/i]-D in TNG). --Jonah [/QB][/QUOTE]
